Numbing injection for lower leg surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a new numbing injection (called a parasacral ischial plane block) to see how well it controls pain during and after surgery on the lower leg, ankle, or foot. If you are having this type of planned surgery, this injection might reduce pain and the need for strong pain medicines.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 80 years old.

This trial compares two types of pain-block injections (erector spinae plane block versus quadro-iliac plane block) given during lower back surgery to see which controls pain better. It may help you have less pain and need fewer pain medicines after your operation.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after surgery for a leg injury: one uses a combination of medicines, and the other uses a nerve block (a shot that numbs the area). The goal is to find out which method provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This study tests a new way to numb the lower leg for surgery using a nerve block. It aims to see if this approach is safe and works well for pain relief during and after surgery.
